Animal Habitat

A habitat is an ecological or environmental area that is inhabited by a particular species of animal, plant or other type of organism.

Preschoolers can be introduced to the concept and vocabulary of habitats. They learn by looking at pictures of different habitat and the animals that live there.

A good start is to teach preschoolers about animals and their habitat in their immediate surrounding areas.
